Great Tea

By Rodney

This is great tea. It is the most flavorful and richest English Breakfast flavors out there. Even than some tea shops that only sell loose leaf tea. I grind the tea up and use it inside filtered pods for a Keurig machine. Instant strong brewed cups of tea. So my only complaint is that you can't buy it in loose in larger quantities. But the tins are great and reusable to buy lesser teas in.

Fabulous English Breakfast

By Julie M.

This English Breakfast is amazing and one of the finest I have consumed in bag form. I have only tried the bagged version but I imagine the loose leaf would be equally wonderful.

Rich, malty and astringent, it does well on it's own, but really shines with the addition of milk. I favoured it with the addition of milk at any time of the day, but it really hit the spot with breakfast. Whether enjoyed with a hearty bowl of oatmeal or with bacon, eggs and toast, it shined. Thanks, Ahmed for my new favourite Englilsh Breakfast!

Best tea for a pick me up!

By Ifthari (twitter Fan)

So, I feel in love with Ahmad Tea since for 2 years! I had been drinking English No.1 tea for a while when it was in stock around here. But it was deemed "For rich people only" and my favorite tea was not sold anywhere local! So, one day, I was browsing during Holiday Time in Marshalls and basically, this tea is treated as a gifting item! Meaning, It is high on the consumption level! And a good thing too! But unfortunately, that year, when I came back for it, it was all gone!
So, this year I decided to check it out! And it was almost gone again! But luckily, they had the 50 bag box of English Breakfast tea, green tea, and earl gray. Which I might add, are probably gone now like the English no.1 tea was!
Now, I had not tried English Breakfast tea yet! And when I got home it was the second thing I did after posting my victory of getting a box of this tea! Now, my family has a favorite tea brand type because they were used to the taste. But for me, that tea always gave me a sick feeling after drinking it. And after drinking this tea, it didn't happen! The English Breakfast Tea is smooth, and good for an afternoon pick me up too! And when you have the tea burp, you don't get a weird after taste like other teas make you feel.

And this is my mom and dad approved too! They couldn't believe the smoothness! And they were like "This tea didn't bother us like the other tea usually does!" However, they are not drinking it because they want some left for guest if they come!

In my opinion, this is a tea that is worth it to buy! Even though it is a rarity for me to find, it is on the list of my best teas to have tried!
